§1108.  To  Furnish  School  Supplies,  Blanks,  etc.]  He  (the 
state  superintendent)  shall  prepare  and  furnish  to  school  officers, 
through  the  county  superintendents,  lists  of  publications  approved 
by  him  as  suitable  for  district  libraries;  such  lists  shall  contain 
also  the  lowest  price  at  which  each  publication  can  be  purchased 
and  such  other  information  relative  to  the  purchase  of  district 
libraries  as  he  may  deem  requisite. 

§1176.    Furniture,  Maps,   Register,   School  Library.)      The 

district  school  shall,  with  the  approval  of  the  county  superintend- 
ent of  schools,  furnish  to  each  school  all  necessary  and  suitable 
furniture,  maps,  charts,  globes,  blackboards,  and  other  school 
apparatus,  including  any  dictionary  which  is  recognized  as  a 
standard  authority.  The  school  register  and  all  school  blanks 
used  shall  be  those  furnished  by  the  state  department  of  public 
instruction.  It  shall  appropriate  and  expend  each  year  not  less 
than  ten  ($10.00),  or  more  than  twenty-five  ($25.00),  for  each 
school  of  the  district  for  the  purpose  of  school  library,  to  be 
selected  by  the  school  board  and  the  teacher,  from  any  list  of 
books  authorized  by  the  superintendent  of  public  instruction,  and 
furnished  by  him  to  the  county  superintendent  for  that  purpose ; 
provided,  that  all  books  purchased  for  the  library  shall  be  bound

the  school  board  having  such  school  under  their  supervision  shall 
be  obliged  to  expend  not  less  than  five  dollars  ($5.00),  annually, 
until  such  library  shall  contain,  in  good  condition,  three  hundred 
volumes,  after  which  said  school  board  shall  not  be  obliged  to 
purchase  so  as  to  increase  the  number,  but  shall  keep  the  books 
in  good  condition,  and  replace  annually  as  many  books  as  may  be- 
come lost  or  destroyed. 

§1177.  Care  of  Library.  Librarian.)  It  shall  have  the  care

ticable, the  library  shall  be  kept  in  the  school  house  and  always 
so  when  school  is  in  session.  It  shall  make  rules  to  govern  the 
circulation  and  care  of  the  books  while  in  the  hands  of  the  pupils 
or  other  persons,  subject  to  the  general  rules  as  may  be  prescribed 


by  the  state  superintendent  of  public  instruction,  and  may  impose 
and  collect  penalties  for  injuries  done  to  any  book  by  the  act,

while  in  his  possession,  but  no  book  shall  be  loaned  to  any  person 
not  a  resident  of  the  district.  It  may  at  any  time  temporarily  ex- 
change any  part  or  all  of  its  library  with  any  other  district  or 
persons,  so  far  as  different  books  may  be  obtained,  but  each  dis- 
trict shall  recall  its  books  before  the  close  of  the  school  term.  It 
may  at  any  time  accept  donations  of  books  for  the  library,  but 
it  shall  exclude  therefrom  all  books  unsuited  to  the  cultivation  of 
good  character  and  good  morals  and  manners,  and  no  sectarian 
publications,  devoted  to  the  discussion  of  sectarian  differences 
and  creeds  shall  be  admitted  to  the  library.  It  shall  be  held  ac- 
countable for  the  proper  care  and  preservation  of  the  library,  and 
shall  report  annually  to  the  county  superintendent  all  library  sta- 
tistics which  may  be  required  by  the  blanks  furnished  for  that

Classification  of  Books 


If  the  library  contains  a  hundred  or  more  books  they  should 
be  classified,  or  arranged  according  to  the  subject — all  books 
on  music  together,  all  stories  of  animals  by  themselves,  and  books 
of  poetry  in  one  place.  The  books  are  much  more  quickly  and 
easily  found  if  arranged  in  this  way.  The  numbers  used  by  the 
Dewey  system  of  classification,  which  should  be  followed  rather 
than  any  other  system,  are  found  preceding  each  subject  in  the 
table  of  contents  under  the  classified  list  of  books  for  school  li- 
braries. These  numbers  should  be  written  on  the  backs  of  the 
books  in  order  that  they  may  be  returned  to  the  proper  place  on 
the  shelves.  All  books  except  individual  biography  should  be  ar- 
ranged alphabetically  according  to  the  author.  Individual  bio- 
graphy should  be  arranged  alphabetically  according  to  the  name 
of  the  person  about  whom  the  biography  is  written.  No  number 
need  be  assigned  to  stories.
